Mead may be the ancestor of all fermented drink, but it's still new to many people. That's why Melovino Meadery wants to make the honey-based wine more accessible to the masses. The family-run company plans on doing just that by producing its mead with all-natural ingredients (think True Source Certified?honey) and by continuing to develop new styles, even though their repertoire will stand at more than a dozen by the end of 2014. During tours, visitors get to sample up to six different types of the centuries-old drink that Shakespeare liked to indulge in before writing about knife fights.

Brant Braue's life completely changed when his brother asked him this question in the autumn of 2010. Brant's answer? He'd open a distillery?he just needed a partner. Luckily, he found Krista Haley, a local attorney looking for a similar change in her life, at a local craft brewery.
The two went on to create Jersey Artisan Distilling, a distillery focused on classic techniques. Their flagship spirit was Busted Barrel Rum, which comes in two varieties: Busted Barrel Dark Rum matures in white oak barrels and carries hints of vanilla and caramel; Busted Barrel Silver Rum is made with custom copper stills and Louisiana molasses. These and their other spirits have been profiled by the New York Times, New Jersey Monthly, Jersey Bites, and the Star Ledger?and Jersey Artisan Distilling was ranked among the top distillers in country by Thrillist_.
Jersey Artisan Distilling now supplies both variants to restaurants throughout New Jersey, but you don't have to stray from the source to sip its signature rum. The distillery hosts tours and tastings?where tour participants get to be the first to try experimental spirits for future release before they hit store shelves?and the team invites guests to join them for special events such as bottling nights, one of the few events where people fill their bottles with liquid instead of tiny ships.

Little Town NYC unabashedly hearts New York. Of its three restaurants, two are located in iconic Manhattan spots: one in Union Square, the other on Theater District’s Restaurant Row. Little Town’s fancy for the Empire State shines through on the menu, too, with homestyle dishes such as the Adirondack chicken pesto and an Angus beef burger topped with crispy Berkshire bacon. The Suburb Backyard BBQ platter is piled high with enough buffalo wings, Nathan's hot dogs, and other locally inspired fare to feed a family of four.
Little Town NYC also takes great pride in its beer list, which features more than 100 local brews, including IPAs and amber ales that hail from breweries in Long Island, Ithaca, and Saratoga Springs. At the Restaurant Row location, you can enjoy a pilsner from Coney Island while sitting in a booth constructed from the beach’s old wooden boardwalk.

Groupon Guide

BYOB restaurants encourage diners to bring along a bottle of wine from home, but how do you select the perfect pairing for a meal you haven’t even ordered yet? Seth White, sales manager at Union Square Wines, shared the following tips for matching wines with common BYOB cuisines.
Sushi
“Champagne is probably my best recommendation," Seth says without missing a beat when I asked what to bring to a sushi joint. The key is to let the relatively delicate flavors of the fish shine through, and the freshness of a sparkling wine helps complement the rolls and nigiri. Along the same lines, Seth says that the crispness of a sauvignon blanc can have a similarly harmonious effect.

Thai
Dealing with spicy cuisine can be tricky, and in those cases, Seth warns against selecting a fuller-bodied, tannic wine, which can intensify the incendiary flavors and overwhelm the rest of the dish. To play it safe, he suggests choosing a lighter, fruit-forward red such as a low-tannin pinot noir or a beaujolais. The slight sweetness of an off-dry riesling can also balance out spice for diners who prefer white wine or detergent-commercial actors who already spent the day spilling red wine everywhere.

Barbecue and Burgers
"Syrah, especially from the northern Rhône Valley, tends to have a smoky, meaty quality itself," Seth says. That makes it an ideal choice for a platter of pulled pork. Zinfandels also work well with grilled meats, and they share syrah's medium-bodied structure and relatively full flavors. "Zinfandel and a burger—can't beat that," he says.

Pizza
Seth says the toppings matter, but it's the sauce that he comments on first. Since tomato sauce lends its own small burst of acidity, you'll need a wine that has the natural acidity to match. "I tend to pair [Italian wines] with pizza," Seth says, calling out sangiovese-based Tuscan blends and barberas as particularly good choices. Of course, the toppings are important. Seth says that pies with fatty meats like sausage can stand up to a slightly more robust southern Italian red, whereas vegetarian pizzas might not require something quite so bold.
